lyrics

Walking with my head down
I can see my feet stepping on the ground
A crooked one points the way to town

Treading with my mouth tight
I can feel my teeth drifting out of sight
A loose one falls down the wrong pipe

A cross threaded bolt attaches my head to my neck and everything from the ground up
My teeth are ground up
With a little trouble you can unscrew my head
And stick the tube down
Down my neck now
Stick the tube down
Down my neck that is a well in the ground
Misusing nouns
Racketeering sounds to disturb the whole town

An eye messing with my head

Don't use contractions
Words can affect you and your actions
Engage with life reading the captions

I have faith that blast beats
Give you gumption to get off your feet
Play through story mode without the cheats

A cross threaded bolt attaches my head to my neck and everything from the ground up
My teeth are ground up
With a little trouble you can unscrew my head
And stick the tube down
Down my neck now
Stick the tube down
Down my neck that is a well in the ground
Misusing nouns
Racketeering sounds to disturb the whole town

An eye messing with my head
